This study introduced a new high-throughput method for analyzing scalp hair morphology and found that quantifying hair form provides more accurate information than traditional classification based on racial categories, challenging the belief that cross-sectional morphology predicts hair curvature.

This article presents a protocol for using mouse tail skin to study hair follicle stem cells, enabling visualization of calcium signaling and other cellular features in various conditions but reports no new research data.

This study identified a heterozygous de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene causing a new disorder characterized by overgrowth and developmental delay, and suggests that DFMO treatment may help manage elevated ODC activity and putrescine levels.

The document cannot be understood or processed.

This study investigated the identity of Victor Vinnetou as Mbuyisa Makhubu using forensic facial comparison and DNA testing, but the findings were inconclusive, requiring further investigation.

This study developed and validated a high-performance liquid chromatographic method for identifying finasteride and its degradation products, showing excellent resolution and sensitivity under various decomposition conditions.

This study developed a validated UV spectrophotometric method that can be used to accurately determine finasteride content in bulk and pharmaceutical formulations.

This study determined that an mFG score of 5 or greater defines hirsutism among Southern Chinese women, with prevalence and score thresholds decreasing with age.

This study clarified and quantified the concept of hair transparency using a validated mathematical model based on measurable hair properties and consumer perception data from stylists in Japan and China.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

This review discusses the acyl-CoA synthetase very-long-chain (ACSVL) enzyme family, including its biochemical characteristics, tissue expression, and involvement in lipid metabolism, but presents no new experimental results.

This study developed the mTurquoise2-Col4a1 mouse model and used fluorescent tagging of collagen IV to offer new insights into basement membrane dynamics during hair follicle budding, revealing that basement membranes are flexible and stable structures in developing skin tissue.

USB videodermatoscopes are a practical and affordable alternative for diagnosing skin conditions.

This study found that the protein Formin 2 helps regulate cell-to-cell transport in thale cress by stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata, with its absence leading to increased permeability and vulnerability to viral infections.

This review discusses genetically-engineered mouse models for studying melanocytes and reports no new experimental findings; it emphasizes their potential to address unanswered questions in melanoma biology.

This study demonstrated the usefulness of fully implantable loggers in measuring heart rate and sub-blubber temperature in captive harbour seals, with findings suggesting lower heart rates during molting and differences in temperature regulation between adults and sub-adults.

This study applies the Displacement Framework to explore how hair serves as both a biological and social signal, highlighting the costs of institutional demands for hair straightening in Black communities, which the natural hair movement counters by returning to natural hair.

This study identified molecular elements controlling the expression and stabilization of THH protein in hair follicle cells, revealing key mechanisms that support hair shaft development in mice.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

This study reports a case of a 59-year-old female with refractory follicular mucinosis and diffuse scalp alopecia who achieved complete clinical remission following treatment with a combination of topical tacalcitol and photodynamic therapy.

This study identified collagen XXII as a novel extracellular matrix protein specifically present at tissue junctions, where it functions as a cell adhesion ligand for skin epithelial cells and fibroblasts.

This study presents a validated questionnaire, the FFA-QLI, which effectively assesses and differentiates the quality of life impact among patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing greater sensitivity in identifying severe cases than the DLQI.

This study revealed that frizzled 3 can fully rescue polarity defects in frizzled 6-null mice, while frizzled 6 can partially rescue defects in frizzled 3-null mice, highlighting conserved signaling roles in these proteins.

This review discusses existing forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and externally visible characteristics and highlights major technical limitations, including terminology issues, genetic knowledge gaps, and technological debates; it reports no new results.

This article discusses the complexity of vulvodynia and highlights the potential effectiveness of Fascial Manipulation therapy in addressing this condition, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers conducted an exploratory re-analysis of miRNA dysregulation and aging-related target enrichment using publicly available data on female pattern hair loss, comparing 3 FPHL scalp samples to 5 healthy female controls, and emphasized that the findings are preliminary and require further validation.

This paper presents consensus guidelines for standardized diagnostic criteria and assessment methods for frontal fibrosing alopecia to improve clinical research and data collection globally.

This study introduced and validated new spectrophotometric methods to simultaneously determine finasteride and tadalafil in Entadfi™ capsules with high sensitivity and without interference from excipients.

In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.
